The Real Labour of Thinking

“There is no expedient to which a man will not resort to avoid the real labour of thinking.” – Robert Beno Cialdini

That’s the quote that has got me thinking since yesterday.

So there’s a labour of thinking?

And human will go to all extent to avoid that labour.

Why?

When was last time you think?

Not thought about what you will eat tomorrow. Thoughts like

What’s the universe made of?

Why would human go to any extent to avoid the labour of thinking?

Why do good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people?

Why is it that 2 humans raised under the same condition will grow up to be opposite of each other in all things?

Why is it that things left on their own move from orderliness to disorderliness?

When was the last time you took a question and spend weeks or months thinking about it?

There’s a real labour of thinking and there is no expedient to which a man will not resort to avoid it.

I’ve been thinking about that since yesterday.
